The Problem of Fragile Feature Subset Preference in Feature Selection Methods and a Proposal of Algorithmic Workaround
Abstract—We point out a problem inherent in the optimization scheme of many popular feature selection methods. It follows from the implicit assumption that higher feature selecti...
